Nang Quang Nguyen

With the cards already on their backs, Nang Quang Nguyen in the big blind was the player at risk and narrowly covered by Vincent Huang on the button.

Nang Quang Nguyen: {j-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Vincent Huang: {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}

The {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} board failed to improve Nguyen and the stacks were counted. Nguyen had 24,700 and that was indeed covered by Huang.

Tan Back on the Rise

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
